About Us

We are the soul of a newspaper. Not just any newspaper. We are the soul of the Toronto Sun from back in the day when it was the tabloid everyone in Toronto talked about. We are the people who helped make it happen. Sadly, most of us are long gone from the Sun. Many are now deceased. But when we were all a part of the Sun, as it was, it was a vibrant, kick ass paper that captured the impossible dream.

What other bloggers are saying about Sun Media, Quebecor, Toronto Sun Family etc. Click on blog name for full postings.

Mock Turtle:"I’m no fan of the Sun chain and all its works, but I’m sort of fascinated by the Toronto Sun Family blog, which specializes in bring-out-your-dead-style daily casualty lists of editorial employees fired, resigned or laid off that day as the chain collapses."

Magoogle 1:"This was what actually inspired the post below, but it's also worth passing on, on its own merit. After 35 years, 5,000 columns and 4,000 editorials, John Downing has left the Toronto Sun. Not with the fanfare that an accomplishment half that impressive would deserve, but quietly, with no fanfare or the recognition he deserved for being a huge part of shaping this city and its opinions."

Magoogle 2:"I've been part of it . . . a couple of times now . . . And though I never worked at the Toronto Sun, I completely understand what the employees, past and present are going through. Watching something they sweat blood to create slowly being pulled apart by money hungry vultures with no understanding of what they own, what its potential might be, or the history behind it."

The Toronto Sun Family: 1971 - 2017

Current and former Sun Media employees, this blog is for you. We'd like to hear your feelings about the Sun, pro or con, your experiences and if no longer with Sun Media, what you are doing today. There is no "I" in Toronto Sun Family. Just "we."
